Is TM 4.5 Fungicide the same as Clearys 3336 Fungicide? Both products contain Thiophanate-methyl for the active ingredient but application instructions are different regarding watering or not watering the application, can you clarify the difference? I'm treating St Augustine.

TM 4.5 Fungicide states do NOT water in the application (dry on the blade) and the Clearys 3336F Fungicide labels states it needs to be watered in following the application.

Answer:

TM 4.5 Fungicide does contain a slightly higher percentage of Thiophanate-methyl therefore the mix rates are going to be lower but cover more treatment area in Commercial Use Sites such as Golf Courses, Turf-grass, Landscapes, Trees, Nurseries, and Greenhouses. Clearys 3336F Turf and Ornamental Systemic Fungicide is intended more for residential turfgrass, flowers, foliage plants, bedding plants, groundcovers, deciduous and evergreen trees and shrubs.  Both products have the same recommendations in regards to additional watering after the application. For Foliar diseases, no additional watering is needed to allow the product to dry on the leaf surfaces. For soil or root diseases, you will want to lightly water the application in help move the application down into the roots zone.  Refer to the product label for the specific Foliar or Turf disease you are targeting for information on rates, additional watering if needed and retreatment intervals.
